What is a "google analytics gif request server side"? GA loads a JavaScript from the GA server; where does a GIF come into play? You can use an HTTP monitoring tool like the Firefox extension LiveHTTPHeaders to observe all HTTP traffic.

Hi Lester,

Yes,google loads the java script code from the google server.But finally what the java script does is ,it sends the request for a one pixel image with all the required paramaters added to the request querry which would fill the google data base.My requirement is to work on a plat form where java script doesn't work .So i have to eventually end up creating the same kind or request from the serverside.

I hope that clears your question.If not, please visit the below link for more details
